Review of After Lucia (2012) by Estefanía P — 04 Aug 2013
Después de Lucía tiene una trama pesada causante de interés meramente mórbido. Se destaca por la fotografía más incómoda jamás: como una niña usando pantimedias. Aunque provoca breve reflexión, muestra un nulo lenguaje visual y está llena de fallas técnicas evitables que distraen significativamente de la historia.
Aplaudo la constante sensación de que lo visto es absolutamente real, como espiado desde una cámara de Gesell. Grandes actuaciones, sin embargo, los personajes no hacen justicia al talento de sus intérpretes y su desarrollo queda incompleto y sin explicar.
Decepción segura en cuanto a estética, trama impresionante a ratos. ------------------------- After Lucia has a heavy plot which causes merely morbid interest. It stands out for the most awkward photography ever: like a girl wearing pantyhose.
Although briefly thought-provoking, the film shows no visual language and is full of avoidable technical flaws that distract significantly from the story. I applaud the constant feeling that what is seen is absolutely real, as spied from a Gesell chamber.
Great performances, however, the characters do not do justice to the talent of its performers and their development is incomplete and unexplained. Sure disappointment in terms of aesthetics, impressive plot at times.
